i usually don't like to get in the arguments on the internet where someone claims to be a patriot and is bashing the opponent's country calling names and what not. I feel sorry for people arguing where Buddha was born or where mount Everest is. Sure thing, it is a matter of pride but what we Nepalese do is always try to bring these two things up no matter what or where.
The guy in one of the comments has a valid point, Nepalese people did not build Mt. Everest and yeah Buddha was born here but that's just some co-incidence. We can not always take these two factors and (maybe "Gurkhas" being the third one) and keep on arguing with people we've never seen or met.  Well, I guess my point is what if Mt. Everest wasn't in Nepal or Buddha wasn't born in Nepal,what would you say? So stop being arrogant and argue with valid points.
and BTW the Nepalese guy acting American said, "nepalese are poor"  well from what i see Nepalese are rich but Nepal is poor.
